Abstract

The research entitled “blood oxygen level associated with yoga therapy – A study”. The study was conducted on 16 subjects at men’s from Washim District. These subjects divided into two groups, 12 subjects in experimental group, 4 subjects in control group. The subjects were divided into two groups based on sample random sampling between the age 21 and 26 years .The study was conducted in a period of 6 weeks. Body Mass Index (BMI) and Haemoglobin, were used as parameters. These parameters were measured both at the beginning and at the end of the study, using pre-post experimental test design. The yoga therapy group obtained significance increasing in the Body Mass Index (t= -4.0299, p= 0.0019), Haemoglobin (t=-5.2129, p= 0.0002886). There were no significant changes in the subject of control group the study conducted for longer duration with more no: of subjects may give higher significant results. To get better results, the study may be carried out with controlled Life-style and changes in the diet.
